"The students and teachers from Satree Phuket were travelling to Bangkok" - you really have to factor in the danger on the roads on Phuket, and Thailand, when choosing transport options.  

 

For a few baht more, booked well in advance, possibly with a group discount booking, they really should have considered flying.
